Boiler lead companies

[AllyBongo]

Anyone ever used companies that sell you boiler leads, tempted to give them a try, but unsure if it will actually be worth it. Its just installs we are looking to do

Yeh u til recently I used to,,, I used a company called service magic and boiler guide, both have recently changed ownership and name, I've had many a job off them so if your quite then it's handy , just remember you pay for the lead but it's not garaunteed work just garaunteed foot in the door to give an estimate,,, most of the time I was competing against British Gas and SSE so my quotes always looked great next to theres lol,,,

Forgot to say tell them it's just installs and they'll only send u instal leads,

Cheers. I always thought they were a bit of a scam. So, do you just tell them how many leads you want and they send the details over? Do they always have leads in your area?

Are they any good? Always thought it was a one way money earner for them?

Used service Magic a while back for a few jobs. Can't complain really, don't like paying for jobs but it worked. They did send over a few dud leads - just kicked up a fuss and they refunded me everyone I complained about. I was getting about 50% of jobs I quoted

Reading that back to myself i might start using them again!:smile5:

No it's gone to quotatis or something like that.

I used to just get boiler service and breakdowns off service magic had a few but some were just a waste of time wanting to pay £20 and stuff like that. It's a shame you can't pick and choose which ones you want to but a bit like rated people as you can usually sort the bad ones out before you buy.

Holmes Media seems set up pretty well, think we're going to give it a try. Also spoke to Leads to You today, same kind of set up but a bit more expensive.

I use boiler guide, actually on an install this week from them. Any dud leads ie: wrong number, no replies etc then they do refund (I have had about 4 duff leads) also usual problem with potential customers who think replacing a back boiler costs £1000 all in lol. This is the first install I have got the nod on through them and it was a last chance before I closed the account!
